gunjta shahron mein tanhai ka sannaTa to hai

MORE BYBaqar Mehdi

    gūñjtā shahroñ meñ tanhā.ī sannāTā to hai

    be-kasī ham-navā ab tak vahī saayā to hai

    TūTtī jaatī haiñ ummīdoñ zanjīreñ magar

    Thokareñ khāne ko majbūrī ik sahrā to hai

    chāñd kyā niklegā ḳhvāboñ añdherī raat hai

    duur tak taarā ḳhayāloñ magar chamkā to hai

    būḌhe sarkash zar-garī meñ rahzanoñ ke saath haiñ

    inqalāb-e-nau vo pindār ab TuuTā to hai

    in ḳhatīboñ tilism-e-lan-tarānī toḌ de

    is hujūm-e-be-navāyāñ meñ koī aisā to hai

    qissa-e-ādam talḳhī zindagī ke saath hai

    jannateñ lākhoñ banā kar aadmī tanhā to hai

    shor hai Dūbīñ hazāroñ azmateñ tārīḳh

    kitnī ḳhāmoshī se bahtā vaqt dhārā to hai

    muskurā kar zer-e-lab shāyad yahī kahte haiñ vo

    laakh saudā.ī sahī 'bāqar' magar apnā to hai

    gunjta shahron mein tanhai ka sannaTa to hai

    be-kasi ka ham-nawa ab tak wahi saya to hai

    TuTti jati hain ummidon ki zanjiren magar

    Thokaren khane ko majburi ka ek sahra to hai

    chand kya niklega KHwabon ki andheri raat hai

    dur tak tara KHayalon ka magar chamka to hai

    buDhe sarkash zar-gari mein rahzanon ke sath hain

    inqalab-e-nau ka wo pindar ab TuTa to hai

    in KHatibon ka tilism-e-lan-tarani toD de

    is hujum-e-be-nawayan mein koi aisa to hai

    qissa-e-adam ki talKHi zindagi ke sath hai

    jannaten lakhon bana kar aadmi tanha to hai

    shor hai Dubin hazaron azmaten tariKH ki

    kitni KHamoshi se bahta waqt ka dhaara to hai

    muskura kar zer-e-lab shayad yahi kahte hain wo

    lakh saudai sahi 'baqar' magar apna to hai
